Prayers For Healing

Jesus Is Willing To Heal You

“Everyone tried to touch him, because healing power went out from him, and he healed everyone.” (Luke 6:19)

God wants you well. Disease is not his will for you.There’s a story in Mark 1:40-42 of a very sick man who came to Jesus. He said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can heal me.” The man doesn’t doubt Christ’s capacity to fix his body; he does, however, doubt his willingness. Jesus reassures him. He heals him and then affirms: “I am willing.” Jesus wants you to know that He has both the capacity and the desire to heal you. Here is a sequence of Scripture promises and prayers of faith to guide you in your journey to healing.

"This medicine has healthy side effects."

“My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. Don’t lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body.” (Proverbs 4:20-22 NLT)

Lord, I am willing to take any medicine that will aid in my healing, especially the nutrition of your Word. You used words to create the world. I will borrow your words, declare them, and you will recreate my body. Revitalize my flesh Oh Lord with the perfect healing that comes from the Kingdom of Heaven. Help me live with a heart that truly practices praising, adoring, and loving you incessantly with infinite affection. Your love for me will never fail.

"Talk to yourself."

“Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits— who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases.” (Psalm 103:1-3 NIV)

As David talked to his body, commanding his entire being to praise the Lord, so do I. I command every cell in my body to worship the living God. Like David, I boldly choose to be mindful of the benefits that you offer me. Among them is healing. Diseased cells, you cannot worship because you are rebellious, existing contrary to God’s intent. Therefore, you must go by the edict of the living God. Immune system, you are part of my inmost being, so rise up and restore my physical body to God’s design.

"It aint' over yet."

“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” (Psalm 139:14-16 NIV)

Lord, I do love you, and I receive the benefits: a long, disease-free, satisfying life! Lord, there are many things we have yet to accomplish, many people that need my love and influence, and many joys to experience with you. The thief – sickness – will not steal, kill, or destroy that purpose. Even when the stress of the fight wears on me, I will remain in Your overwhelming peace.
